this looks kinda cheaply made

It seriously looks like an A-List multimillion dollar movie made by Roger Corman who pledged only to spend every penny on Will Smith and CGI

Anyone want to take a bet when they'll abort the hilariously large DC future announcement they made soon as they realize they have none?

ED: You know what that was mean to Roger Corman, he put more effort into that poo poo Fantastic Four movie than Fox is doing, and that was literally just a scam

So is Will Smith a bad guy or not

Cuz he sure is acting like not a bad guy in this trailer, and that is lame as gently caress

He plays Deadshot, an assassin who has a daughter.

He just wants to do right by his daughter, so he kills people for money.

Also he's estranged from his daughter, because he's a remorseless murderer, but that just makes him work harder at his job of killing people, so he can do right by his daughter

So yeah, he's a pretty sympathetic, morally gray character that you can really root for.

Holy poo poo I just watched the trailer.

That was worse than I expected. I mean Goddamn. It looks like a TV show half the time (I'm hoping they actually fix their effects) but all the characters look grating, their audio choices, their.. everything. How the hell do you gently caress things up this badly?

The focus on Harley Quinn is hilarious given she basically looks like a gibbering junkie who's special ability is "has baseball bat," which is literally making Hawkeye look like a God.

ED: Anyone hoping this ends superhero movies.. just hope it ends /DC/ superhero movies because literally the only thing they've done right in years is hire Nolan for two movies he wanted to make, and one he slept through making.

Yeah Roger Corman probably would have turned around a more entertaining-looking movie, and for like 1/8 of the budget of this turd

My issue is Killer Croc. Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje Is a fine actor but they really should have done a CGI monster for him instead of make up. Like Hulk in Avengers. He could still do the voice.

They're doing a TV show where Captain Cold fights Vandal Savage.

Meanwhile, the DC movie division has produced... that.

I'm fairly loving proud of myself it has to be said. I don't even read any comics. i guess the marketing is pretty good if i already know the characters for this poo poo movie with a bunch of DOA B villains who are basically only there to hold us over until the justice league movie comes out.

I am fairly certain this is accurate for almost every role Will Smith has had in the past 10 years if you make a few adjustments

quote:

He plays Robert Neville, a scientist who has a doggie.

He just wants to do right by humanity, so he kills infected in hopes of finding a cure.

Also he's estranged from humanity, because of the apocalypse, but that just makes him work harder at his job of searching for a cure, so he can do right by humanity

So yeah, he's a pretty sympathetic, morally gray character that you can really root for.

quote:

He plays Cypher Raige, a future-army general who has a son.

He just wants to do right by his son, so he kills aliens for humanity.

Also he's estranged from his son, because he's a remorseless murderer (it's literally his superpower, the inability to feel fear), but that just makes him work harder at his job of killing aliens so he can do right by his son

So yeah, he's a pretty sympathetic, morally gray character that you can really root for.

quote:

He plays John Hancock, a super hero with a bad attitude who has a new family.

He just wants to do right by his new family, so he saves people for fame.

Also he's estranged from his new family, because he has a bad attitude, but that just makes him work harder at his job of saving people, so he can do right by his new family

Ok!, who?, who? eh, umm..., who?, YEAH!, who??

My biggest problem with this movie is that they really should have introduced these characters in other films and built up to the big Suicide Squad team up film. I don't know who the gently caress these people are and I don't care. Or if they weren't so stupid their TV and Movie universes would be the same and a few could have been introduced on TV but I guess having three separate TV universes is cool.

Will Smith is a good actor but I'm convinced that by this point in his career his PR people just plain will not let him portray an actual bad guy that is not sympathetic in any way.
